FACTS VS.. THEORIES.

One of the best instances of the
value of facts over theories is
afforded by Professor w. T. Harris,
in a recent article in the "Forum."
He attacks the land theory of
Henry George by presentation of
figures. George claims that by ma
tionalizing the land and putting on
it a Government tax equal to the
rent, all expenses of the Government
would be paid, vast surplus left
for public improvements, charitable
Institutions, libraries, art galleries,
amusements and means of mental
and physical betterment of all kinds.
Also, that poverty will be banished,
by preventing speculation in land
values and monopoly of the soil. Pro-
fessor Harris gives data which show
that the value of land owned by in
dividuals or companies in the United
States excluding buildings and
other improvements in accordance
with Georges scheme, is about ten
billion dollars, hence the annual
rental at an estimate of 4 per cent
of its market value, which for the
naked land is fair, would be about
four hundred millions year. This
is little more than Sc. &C year for
each man, woman and child in the
country, or a little more than 2
cents for each working day. The
average income of our people, in
Guiding every individual, is about
40 cents day at low estimate.
These are the figures upon which
Mr.. George must depend for his
promised results. Instead of hav-
ing a surplus after paying the ex-
penses of Government, he would
have a deficit of 100000, 900 for
the present taxation of the country
national, State and local-foots
up, according to some accounts,
about eight hundred million dollars.
1t remains for Mr.. George to show
how this item of 2 cents day is
going to make or mar the fortunes
Of the people of the United States,
whether paid to landlords, retained
in their own pockets as individual
landowners, or given to Govern
ment for revenue purposes.

Why am I so Miserable?

pitations of the heart, this feverish rest
lessness, these night sweats; this dis
turbed and dreamy sleep, which brings
no refreshing rest but only meanings
and mutteiingS, and the horrors of the
nightmare?
The answer is. These are the symp.
toms Of Indigestion or Dyspepsia-the
beginning and the fOrerunner of almost
every other human disease. Indigestion
is weakness or want of power of the
digestive fluids Of the s. omach TO con-
vert the food into healthy matter for the
proper nourishment of the body. 1t is
caused most frequently by the irregu-
lalily of diet, or improper food, want of
healthy exercise and pure outdoor air.

would no longer be u subject of fearful
anxiety TO the young ana middle-aged,
but what would be contemplated by all
as ii visit of an expected friend at the
close of peaceful and happy old age.
However, the first hostile invader upon
the domain of health and happiness is
Indigestion.
Is there any relief, any remedy, any
cure? That is the question of the suf
teriug and unhappy dysptpiic. What is
wanted is medicine that will thorough.
" rCnovate the stomach, towels, liver,
and kidneys, and afford speedy and eff.
fectual assistance to the digestive organs,
and restore TO the nervous and muscular
systems their original energy.
Such Il medicine is happily at hand.
Never in the history of medical discov-
cries, e'idenced by dozen years thor
ough lest, has there been found a remedy
for Indigestion so speedy, so sure, and
so surprising in'its results rs Siegei's
Curative Syrup, but to-day il is a standard
remedy for that almost universal afilic-
ton i'll every civilized country in Europe,
Asia, Africa aud America. Public les

taiy officers, bankers. merchants, ship
captains, mechanics, farmers, and their
wives and daughters, alike confirm its
